The Other Woman

I live in NW Montana and saw this ride on eBay. Thought it was a unique
creation and bid on it, won it, and then drove 2,900 miles round trip to pick
it up. Turns out the builder worked for a bus company and also had at his
disposal many other vehicles to put the Trike together. Been riding for 30+
years, but this is my first Trike. Have not messed with VW's since High
School.

She currently is called: "The Other Woman"

Parts are from:
Unknown year early VW Karmann Ghia (aluminum rims)
1972 VW Super Beetle (motor and drive-line, misc. lighting)
Unknown VW Bus/Transporter (euro-taillights)
MCI Model-8 School bus (stainless trim and side hatches)
1947 Plymouth (trunk lid light)
1958 Volvo (round tail lights)
1979 Yamaha XS650 Special (front end, fuel tank, speedo, headlight)
Unknown year Minneapolis Moline (tractor seat for diver)
3-across rear seating for passengers - with seat belts
Unknown year Harley Davidson Sportster (dual mufflers on exhaust pipes)
US Military .30 Cal ammo cans as storage
All METAL body and frame, he could weld... but not straight
Other misc. auto store and truck stop parts, gauges, lights and stuff,
skulls, naked women, you know the usual....

After getting it back home, I have discovered that it has MUCH in the way of
deferred maintenance and wish to get it running as well as possible without
spending too much cash.
